Something suddenly came over Layla and she didn't know what. She ran as quick as she could before Jargos slashed at Mortifer. She closed her hands around his wrist. Something Layla saw that she didn't see before had kept her from allowing Jargos to kill Mortifer.

Mortifer passed from fear as Jargos began to swing. Then the wave of relief from Layla's embrace shocked Jargos and he stopped in mid-swing, in mid-growl even. He released Mortifer then turned to Layla. He began to revert to his normal form

Layla took Jargos' hand in-between hers. "I know you're angry. I am too. He's the reason that Master Raven is dead. It's a pain I'm still getting over. But, Jargos, enough blood has been shed. Enough people have died or hurt. I wanted every last bit of my anger to be taken out on him, but revenge isn't going to do it. Losing Raven made the last century of my life feel like it was wasted to some extent, but revenge isn't going to satisfy anything."

Jargos was breathing heavy. As he finished shifting, he nodded to her, but reluctantly. His rage was washing away, his runes were glowing a soft blue

Layla formed a white aura around Mortifer to contain him. She met him face to face.

"You're the reason someone close to me is dead, but I can't bring myself to allow myself, or anyone else, to kill you. Consider yourself lucky." It was obvious to him that deep pain was in her eyes but she didn't dare express it through words. "Years go by and time just seems to fly, but the memories all remain the same. I can't change any of them, and I shouldn't take my anger out as revenge. In my eyes, enough blood has been shed. Enough lives lost. I wish you could understand, but if you're anything like Balthazar then you're too blind to see the truth that lies in front of you. You're corrupted by an evil that you were forced to bear from birth. Everyone is innocent somewhere deep down, and I honestly believe that if it hadn't have been for your ancestor then you wouldn't be here in this position."

Mortifer tried to spit at Layla, but the crushing Impact from Jargos pinning him left so weak that he just drooled

Layla let the aura down, letting Kreig take over. She walked off, hoping Jargos would follow. Layla was holding back all her anger and all her pain, just to remind herself that the one thing she wanted just wasn't worth it.

Jargos did follow. He got in front of her and gave her a hug. Holding her close was the only thing he could think to do

"I just couldn't bring myself to let you, or myself, kill him. I thought getting back at him would give me what I wanted. I can't change that Raven's gone. I know this now." She kissed him on the cheek. "I'm just glad that I realized what I was thinking before I let the situation get too far."

"I owe you, Layla. You just saved me from doing something that would have hurt us both and brought us down to his level" Jargos spoke softly

Layla shook her head. "You owe me nothing. I probably would've done the same thing if you hadn't have been there. I would've done the same thing if I had been one on one with him. Given an opportunity like that I wouldn't have turned down." She wiped her eyes a bit. "Now we need to know what we do with Mortifer now that we have him in one place."

Layla sighed. After a moment, she had an idea. "Well, I could strip his powers. Seeing as he doesn't have his book anymore and we have him contained, I could probably get it in him somehow. It won't kill him, and it'll keep him from hurting anyone else with magic that evil ever again."
